Her Graceful War Song Chapter 98
Aurora's voice was loud enough for all the generals and the Mystic Army to hear. Aurora prided herself on being straightforward, and spoke without reservation. However, her words only deepened the disdain of those who already looked down on Carissa. The murmurs of discontent turned into a torrent of insults, overwhelming Carissa.Violet and the others were livid, their faces turning ashen with anger. If not for the military rules, they would have rushed forward to teach Aurora a lesson right then and there. Their anger grew even more when they saw Carissa's calm demeanor. Despite Aurora's blatant provocation, Carissa showed no signs of anger. She simply watched Aurora in silence, like a mute. She didn't respond, and her expression remained unchanged. Only her eyes grew darker."Carissa!" Rafael took a wooden staff from Dylan, and tossed it to her. "Don't use the Rose Spear. Use this."Carissa caught the staff with one hand and tossed the Rose Spear back to Rafael, giving him a m

Aurora's heart raced; she glanced at Carissa’s dark eyes, then at the unmarked wooden staff in her hands. She was astonished. Could this be no ordinary wooden staff? Of course! Rafael would go out of his way to protect Carissa. How could he give her an ordinary wooden stick?With that thought in mind, Aurora sneered. "This staff must be more than just a wooden stick, right? It seems the marshal picked the sturdiest weapon for you."The wooden staff was as long as the Rose Spear. It was actually just a wooden post meant for building camp structures. If Aurora had paid close attention, she would have realized it was an ordinary stick. Convinced of Rafael’s favoritism towards Carissa, however, she refused to believe he would give her anything ordinary in this challenge.Many soldiers were unable to see clearly from a distance. They, too, believed Aurora’s accusation, thinking Carissa’s staff was a superior weapon. Immediately, cries of unfairness erupted. “How can an ordinary w

Aurora spat out a mouthful of blood. Carissa's kick seemed to have nearly dislocated her internal organs. It left her in such agony, she couldn’t make a sound for a long time. Her face was ashen as she instinctively touched her neck, feeling the blood on her fingers. Her entire body trembled uncontrollably—not from fear, but from the sheer inability to accept this outcome.She looked at Carissa in disbelief. Such martial skills were beyond anything she had ever seen. How did Carissa, of all people, possess such formidable abilities? Aurora recalled how Barrett had once mentioned that Carissa had hurt him by simply flicking leaves, a statement that had seemed laughable then. Now, after experiencing it firsthand, a surge of jealousy and hatred gnawed at her.This swift defeat was a brutal slap in her face. Earlier, she had accused Carissa of relying on connections to rise in rank, causing several officers to be punished. Even before the fight, she had loudly berated Carissa, inci

The Mystic Army was now utterly impressed with Carissa, particularly Michael. He could see the formidable nature of Carissa's move. She had shattered the wooden staff into many pieces, and they had all been perfectly aligned. There was a subtle but powerful technique hidden within her inner force. Among all the flying wooden shards, only the one that landed on his neck was light.As the sun set and darkness enveloped the land, the campfire cast its glow over the gradually dispersing soldiers. They chattered excitedly about Carissa's technique.“That staff shattered into pieces right on the spot! It was incredible—almost like magic!”“She's truly worthy of being the late General Sinclair's daughter. She's amazing!”“I told you, if she hadn’t made real achievements on the battlefield, how could she have risen to the rank of a fifth-ranked general?”“You shameless idiot! You were the loudest back then! You even made a fuss and tried to protest to the marshal. If I hadn’t dragged yo

Carissa pointed with her Rose Spear toward where she had fought Michael. “If your eyes are still working, see why Michael surrendered for yourself.”The location wasn’t far, just about seven or eight paces away. Aurora followed the direction Carissa indicated, and took a deep breath. She saw five cracks on the ground, each twisting and winding, as if a centipede had crawled through. They converged at one spot.That spot was roughly where Michael had been standing. The cracks seemed to have passed through beneath his feet. One crack was about the size of a footprint, indicating a lighter impact. It appeared that Carissa's inner force had struck Michael's feet, causing this lighter crack.If Carissa hadn’t carefully controlled her inner force, it could have crippled Michael’s legs. That was why he had surrendered.Aurora took a deep breath, realizing that in Carissa’s presence, she had been thoroughly defeated. However, she straightened herself quickly, clinging to Barrett’s ar

Rafael summoned Carissa to the command tent.A cup of hot coffee was placed before her, its steam hazy and blurring her vision. She picked up the cup, and took a sip. It was bitter—but on a battlefield, having any drink was a luxury.“Do you want to kill her?” Rafael asked.“I’ve considered it,” Carissa admitted candidly.“The scouts we sent have reported back. Westhaven has even hidden the fact that Starhaven destroyed villages. They're claiming that a fire destroyed the entire area instead, and everyone was burned alive. Do you know what that means?” Rafael continued.Carissa held the cup tightly. The warmth of the drink contrasted sharply with the coldness in her heart. After a long pause, she finally replied, “I understand. Westhaven wants to conceal the humiliation of their crown prince.”“Even if the king discovers the truth, he can’t punish Aurora publicly. At the very least, you can be assured that your grandfather won’t be implicated because of her,” Rafael said.Sinc
Her Graceful War Song Chapter 104
After Aurora's failed challenge, she faced considerable criticism from soldiers behind her back. The generals who had been punished for their trust in her now treated her with visible disdain.Fortunately, the soldiers under her command still held her in high regard, especially the three hundred who had fought alongside her. Their loyalty remained unwavering, largely because the victory at Fawnrun City had earned them a substantial reward. Despite the murmurs of outsiders, their loyalty to Aurora was steadfast. Moreover, they shared a secret they were bound never to reveal.After two days of emotional turmoil, Aurora slowly began to recover her composure. Though she had no achievements of her own, she took solace in the fact that as long as Barrett succeeded, it would also bring glory to them as a couple. When the time came, she planned to lead her troops alongside Barrett to fight and gain merit. After Barrett’s victories, she hoped he would speak on her behalf.Excitedly, she
Her Graceful War Song Chapter 105
Everyone was busy preparing for battle, and Carissa had been focused on training formations for several days.The fifteen thousand soldiers from the Mystic Army were divided into two groups: one for offense, and one for defense. Each group was further split into ten squads, making a total of twenty squads for both attack and defense.Carissa's battle plan was straightforward: start with five squads on the offense, then quickly rotate in five defensive squads. Once the defense was solidified, they would rotate back to offense, and so on. This method of rotation would push their advance.After several days of training, the results were already noticeable.The weapons were now in place: shields and short swords for the defenders, and long spears for the attackers. Rafael had announced that the siege would begin in just a few days. As the vanguard, the Mystic Army needed to finalize their assault plans.During this period, Barrett would lead ten thousand men to set up siege ladders
